How hard is it to simply ask somebody for their name? I do it with every single customer I talk to, and I talk to hundreds of people a day. I'm extremely introverted and I can ask names without falling over in fear.

Then of course there was the New York Papa John's that <a data-cke-saved-href="<a href=" href="%3Ca%20href=" http:="" consumerist.com="" 2012="" 01="" 09="" papa-johns-receipt-identifies-asian-customer-using-racial-slur="" "="" target="_blank">described a customer as "Lady Chinky Eyes."

And she'll tease youShe'll unease youAll the better, just to please you...

You know, what that person did is wrong and racist and should probably be fired for being a massive douche... but can we get over ourselves as a society please. A million farking dollars for getting a little pissed off at a cashier? Jesus tap-dancing Christ on a cracker!

Oh, I 100% agree.

However, being Asian and having enjoyed a number of taunts while growing up, I would say the appropriate remedy would be to allow the woman one try at punching the responsible cashier as hard as possible.

I get the strong suspicion that the lawsuit only came about because CVS wasn't going to do shiat about their employee. CVS counseling? Seriously? That's gotta be just slightly more useless than high school counseling. If they don't want to take responsibility for their employee and fire him, they should most certainly be given a reason to not do that shiat again in the future. If they know that every time one of their employees says something racist to a customer it's going to cost them $1 million, they'll start firing the offenders on the spot like they should.

Maybe if every time this happened we took the amount of money for whatever transaction it was out of the offending employee's salary to pay for the product so the customer gets it free and the stupid employee loses money.

CSB time. Back in the really old days around the time the world wide web was just starting to become popular, my Dad had an AOL account that I used. AOL was actually half decent back then. Well anyway, I was a huge fan of the Ultima game series, so chose a couple screen names, including my fark moniker and also Shamino with some number at the end of it. Well a few months later, My dad got his bill from AOL, and the name on the account showed my dad's first name followed by the word "ultima" and his last name followed by the word "ultimas". It was kind of funny to me as a teenager, but he was pissed and had me call them to tell them how unprofessional it was and such. I called and they denied that anyone would ever do such a thing and tried to accuse me of being the one that did it and trying to hide it from my Dad. I told off the bastard and changed it back myself, only to have it happen again a few months later. Some people that work at these companies can be really immature.

ransack.:Rembrant_Q_Einstein: Asian people think we smell like cheese.

Is this true? What cheeses have Asians smelled? I didn't think Asians had cheeses. Aren't yellow people lactose intolerant?

Actually, upon more thorough investigation.. at least part of me undeniably smells like cheese.

Depends on what you mean by "Asia". But if you mean "east of the Himalayas", good luck with that. Remember, Asians ferment beans (tofu, miso, etc) and Westerners think it's gross. Westerners ferment milk (cheese) and Asians think it's gross. I've had a number of Chinese friends over the years, and the majority of them all think cheese is disgusting and can't imagine why we eat it. The percentage is probably a little worse than the percentage of Americans who think tofu is disgusting.

You make this set of words bad, well, they'll just find new words to mean the same thing. The same feelings will remain, they'll just be couched in more socially acceptable words. So, an obvious word like "coon" may be gone, and instead, they'll just snidely refer to "welfare recipients".

Makes me think about the one time I got into a fist fight. Well, really it was a few punches each way, an attempt to grab each other, and it was over. Just me and the other guy looking at each other with a pissed off look.

And far from my innate Kung-fu abilities, I have to say I really punched like a little girl.

tricycleracer:What derogatory name could a Chinese restaurant put on a white person's bill?

Look, stop trying to find the white equivalent to every instance of racism. There isn't one. Fortunately for your grandparents, in the history of the world most other races haven't had the opportunity or the desire to oppress and label white people. When it did happen to white people it was at the hands of other people. Stop telling people how stupid they are for getting offended because YOU can't be offended with a racial slur. You all should be thankful, not angry.

I saw this YouTube video once where some English guys were hassling this Asian dude, nothing serious like hate-crime or anything but just friendly dissing, and then the Asian rips off his shirt and is like WAHHHHHHHHH and does a couple ninja poses and kinda leaves the hooligans confused and speechless and then he turned around and ran away as fast as he could, leaving his shirt on the ground. And it was in the treeless UK so you got to watch this guy sprint for like four minutes up a winding dirt road over a hill with a cloud of dust behind him. I was pretty smashed at the time but I remember craCking up and watching that several times. I can't find a link, I have no idea what to search for. I'm drunk. It's okay because I work third shift.

I will say this: we just had a bunch of our weeding photos (804 of them) printed by CVS and they looked outstanding. I mean, our photographer was very, very good, and I'm a not-fulltime-pro-but-still-published photographer so I knew to upload the photos at 4x6 @ 300 and all, but still, I'm discriminating and the prints looked great. We rolled the dice on CVS because they were fast and I had a coupon code (thanks Slickdeals) and we couldn't be happier. We stuffed 4 albums for all the family that helped us pay for the wedding.

Very good post, I was really searching for this topic, as I wanted this topic to understand completely and it is also very rare in internet, that is why it was very difficult to understand. Thank you for sharing this.

mooseyfate:As well they should. Your behavior isn't acceptable, you should be made to understand that. No amount of fake CVS counseling is going to change their attitude since it's based entirely on ignorance, wether it was passed down in the family or picked up from the environment around them. I'm not going to tolerate someone else's blatant racism just because their parents were pieces of shiat and they were too lazy and/or cowardly to educate themselves. I grew up in an incredibly racist town and let me tell you, it's no way to treat another human.

Meh. A better way to go, IMO, is to understand that people are weak/frail enough without having an added artificial weakness for certain words. It took a while, but as a younger half-breed I eventually realized that getting "set off" by some of the words other people sometimes said was ridiculous--especially if you take the idea to its logical conclusion. I'm with you on the idea that racism isn't nice and all, but in the context of a person-to-person interaction isn't it just one of many forms of bad manners? There is a bottomless well of potential litigants if we're going to start letting people collect million-dollar judgements for being on the receiving end of someone else's rudeness.

SuperNinjaToad:tricycleracer: What derogatory name could a Chinese restaurant put on a white person's bill?

Most likely the 'perp' is black. Contrary to most myths, the average Asian faces more daily type discriminations and prejudice from blacks and not whites.

Can you delve more into this? I'm not trolling, I just have honestly never heard of blacks persecuting Asians. I'm a white Hoosier male aged 29 if that helps. There's a fair number of negros hereans much fewer Asians. Where does this attitude come from?

didn't say anything about prosecuting... I'm talking your average run of the mill discrimination or 'small' racist ocurrance like on TFA or things like like mocking, making snide racial comments etc....

Unless the Asian has lived in a 100% white community all his live, most will say they have faced more discrimination from blacks then whites.

This! I don't see how people have a right to sue over insults. It's taken things to a whole new level. If the employee had actually caused some harm, like tripped her or ruined her property, then ok, but seriously?

If I sued every employee of every store that ever pissed me off, I'd be rolling in dough. I could start a lawsuit right now for discrimination after a store employee refused to sell me a bottle of wine last week. She used her "discretion" and chose not to sell wine to the pregnant lady. It's not like I asked for a glass to go with it right then and there, and it wasn't for me anyway.

But I wear big girl pants and just won't return to that store, which is EXACTLY what these idiots should do. GOD frivolous lawsuits piss me off.

Exactly. The lady was all, "I can choose not to sell this to you." I wasn't going to argue with her.So I left all my groceries on the conveyor belt and just walked out. I went to another store of a different chain and left negative feedback on their website. That's it. I didn't call my lawyer and sue the store. That would be really stupid. Instead, I no longer shop at Safeway. Besides, Raley's has a better wine selection.

This is exactly what I mean. I've never had a cashier anywhere ask me for my name. Radio Shack used to ask for my phone number, but that's about it.

As far as I know, when you place an order online, it prints out what you fill in online. It's not like the employee is getting the info from the online photo form, and then filling out another store form to complete the transaction. That would be incredibly inefficient and defeat the point of the technology. I smell shenanigans. biatch probably did it herself for a big payday.

As well they should. Your behavior isn't acceptable, you should be made to understand that. No amount of fake CVS counseling is going to change their attitude since it's based entirely on ignorance, wether it was passed down in the family or picked up from the environment around them. I'm not going to tolerate someone else's blatant racism just because their parents were pieces of shiat and they were too lazy and/or cowardly to educate themselves. I grew up in an incredibly racist town and let me tell you, it's no way to treat another human.

...and all it's doing is putting a bandaid on a gunshot wound.

You make this set of words bad, well, they'll just find new words to mean the same thing. The same feelings will remain, they'll just be couched in more socially acceptable words. So, an obvious word like "coon" may be gone, and instead, they'll just snidely refer to "welfare recipients".

I mean, hell, haven't you seen the way the Republicans Democrats have mastered this artform?

And all the while, people still hate and discriminate. They just sound much more polite and much less obvious doing it.

Remember who ruled the south at the time on the Equal Rights Movement.

andychrist420:Raoul Eaton: Jon iz teh kewl: Raoul Eaton: Where are all these receipts with customer "names" on them coming from? The only time I see a name on a receipt it's when I pay by credit card, and then it pulls my actual name from the card.

This is exactly what I mean. I've never had a cashier anywhere ask me for my name. Radio Shack used to ask for my phone number, but that's about it.

As far as I know, when you place an order online, it prints out what you fill in online. It's not like the employee is getting the info from the online photo form, and then filling out another store form to complete the transaction. That would be incredibly inefficient and defeat the point of the technology. I smell shenanigans. biatch probably did it herself for a big payday.

Thought the same thing. I'd like to see the record of what she actually entered and how the online orders are processed.

ransack.:Scrotastic Method: I will say this: we just had a bunch of our weeding photos (804 of them) printed by CVS and they looked outstanding. I mean, our photographer was very, very good, and I'm a not-fulltime-pro-but-still-published photographer so I knew to upload the photos at 4x6 @ 300 and all, but still, I'm discriminating and the prints looked great. We rolled the dice on CVS because they were fast and I had a coupon code (thanks Slickdeals) and we couldn't be happier. We stuffed 4 albums for all the family that helped us pay for the wedding.

/CPSB//my receipt didn't say Honky Cracker on it

804 pictures of weeding? You should see a mental health professional about your obsessive gardening.

Um, no. 804 across 4 albums is 200 pics per album with one for the cover.

DubtodaIll:I fail to see how anyone deserves financial compensation for something like this.

Because the 'N' word is not allowed but 'Ching Chong Chink' is, of course you don't see how anyone deserves financial compensation. Some people and places are just behind the times, am I right, Fark.com?

You know, what that person did is wrong and racist and should probably be fired for being a massive douche... but can we get over ourselves as a society please. A million farking dollars for getting a little pissed off at a cashier? Jesus tap-dancing Christ on a cracker!

Yep. And as a result I dislike the Asian woman even more than the cashier.

DROxINxTHExWIND:tricycleracer: What derogatory name could a Chinese restaurant put on a white person's bill?

Look, stop trying to find the white equivalent to every instance of racism. There isn't one. Fortunately for your grandparents, in the history of the world most other races haven't had the opportunity or the desire to oppress and label white people. When it did happen to white people it was at the hands of other people. Stop telling people how stupid they are for getting offended because YOU can't be offended with a racial slur. You all should be thankful, not angry.

Thankful? Hardly; there's good money in being a thoroughly-offended professional victim. Being thankful (apparently) doesn't pay nearly as well.

Begoggle:Has someone insulted or offended you?Follow this easy 2-step process for MAXIMUM ATTENTION:1. Sue the company they work for2. Run to the media

When did it become a human right to not ever be insulted and/or offended? I find lots of things in the world are quite offensive, but I'm not suing anyone over them.

Diddums, someone called you a bad name. But you still have all your limbs, you haven't been rendered deaf or blind as a result of having encountered a 'bad' word, so maybe try letting it go and getting on with your life.

You're right that I don't agree with anyone getting paid because their feelings got hurt. Please justify anyone getting paid because their feelings get hurt.

Right. Show me destroyed property, or physical bodily harm, or money stolen. That's worth a lawsuit. An insult? Nope. This lady needs to put on her big girl pants, say something snarky to the cashier, and never return to the store. THE END.
